A meditation timer that starts when you stand the Duo up like a tent, like an hourglass
Does Meditation Timer - Zenitizer work on iPhone Duo?
Yes, since version 1.18 on October 20, 2026, and seen in simulator screenshots: stand the Duo up like a tent and the meditation starts; open, your goal and stats share one screen.
- Simulator verifiedManuel Kehl, the developer, in a submission to FoldHunt on October 21, 2026, with unframed captures from the iPhone Duo simulator in the press release (impresskit.net) and a walkthrough on YouTube. The release notes for version 1.18 (released October 20, 2026) bring full iPhone Duo support, with layouts for the inner and outer displays, the fold and landscape, and a meditation that starts when you stand the phone up like a tent.
Adapted for the fold
- Standing · Hands-free
Stand it up to start
Set up your timer, then turn the Duo and stand it up like a tent: the meditation starts by itself, like turning over an hourglass, with the timer and its words on the cover. It starts once each time you stand it up, and it can be turned off in Settings.
- Open · Inner display
Goal and stats together
Open sideways, your daily goal and streak sit next to your meditation statistics on one screen, instead of in separate tabs.
- Book · Partly folded
Clear of the crease
Partly open like a book, the controls move away from the crease.
- Closed · Outer display
The timer on the cover
Closed, the timer setup with its bells and soundscape fills the cover, with the main actions in the side toolbar.
About Meditation Timer - Zenitizer
Zenitizer is a clean, simple meditation timer for people who find guided meditations distracting. You build routines with interval bells and calming soundscapes, set a daily goal, keep a streak, and look back on detailed statistics and a full history of your sessions. Smart Reminders can nudge you based on Focus modes, workouts, location or your alarm. The timer is free; Zenitizer+ adds more customization, by subscription or a one-time purchase.
Version 1.18, out on October 20, 2026, brings full iPhone Duo support. Its trick is the start: configure the timer, then turn the Duo and stand it up like a tent, and the meditation begins, like setting down an hourglass. Open sideways, the daily goal and streak merge with your statistics on one screen, and partly folded, everything stays off the crease.

Checked the press kit's unframed captures: 2853 × 2007 pixels for the open display, with Daily Goal & Statistics beside the 7-day, yearly and all-time stats and the 09:41 status ring, 1398 × 2034 for the cover, with Timer Setup and its bells, and the cover sideways in tent mode with an active timer and its meditation words.
Poses shown: Open, Closed, Standing. These are observations of the evidence, not a test of every interaction.
App version: 1.18. Environment: iPhone Duo simulator.
Still captures; the automatic start itself is described, not shown. The half-folded book layout appears only in framed press art. No Xcode version is given, and no build was tested.
